That's because you're new to usenet. Yes, I'm sure some chest-puffing
goes on in many groups, but, most of us here are well beyond that
childish behavior. Most of us are here to give back to the community for
all that the community has provided in the past decades and what it will
provide for decades to come.

Your innocence, in todays world, will not serve you well - if you get a
chance to tour the world, and I'm not just talking about tourist spots,
you will be a different person.
